Except that you need to delete the last "cr" before putting it into the list, or you will have a blank line at the bottom; just add one line to the code:
function FindData pStringToFind, pDataToSearch repeat for each line tLine in pDataToSearch if pStringToFind is in tLine then put tLine &cr after tFoundData end repeat
delete the last char of tFoundData
return tFoundData end FindData
Sometimes, but it depends on what you're doing. Revolution is forgiving enough that a lot of the time it doesn't matter. For example, "the number of lines" will return the same number whether the carriage return is at the end or not.
This has come up before, and it isn't a bug, it's a feature. Commas work the same way.

Hi,
I have a tab delimited list I want to be able to search, say I have a list of names for example;
Father Xmas Is Drunk
New Years Is after Xmas
Rudolph The Reindeer
Merry Xmas To all
I want to search for ALL instances of Xmas and display the whole matching line of each found in a list field.
So far I can get it to display the first line only ( Father Xmas Is Drunk) ! Any help would appreciated!!! I have checked the tutorials for help but couldn't find what I was looking for,
is there an example stack or notes anyone may know of?
For short lists (<50,000 lines) you may be pleasantly surprised by the speed of what might look like clunkly Transcript:
function FindData pStringToFind, pDataToSearch repeat for each line tLine in pDataToSearch if pStringToFind is in tLine then put tLine &cr after tFoundData end repeat return tFoundData end FindData
You can call it simply enough:
on mouseUp put FindData("Xmas", fld "stuff") end mouseUp
